Using the Smart Money Filter
The Smart Money Filter is an optional filter that works with both the NASDAQ Scanner and the Breakout Scanner. It applies an additional layer of filtering to help reduce the number of research candidates, allowing you to focus on stocks that better match your preferred research criteria.
What You'll Learn
- What the Smart Money Filter does.
- How to apply it.
- How it works with both scanners.
- How to review filtered results.
How the Smart Money Filter Works
Start by running either the NASDAQ Scanner or the Breakout Scanner using your preferred filters.
When the Smart Money Filter is applied, EdgeBreak performs an additional layer of filtering to reduce the number of results, making it easier to focus your research.
The Smart Money Filter is designed to organise research—not replace it.
Review the Results
After applying the filter, review the remaining stocks and compare their overall market structure.
The goal is to identify organised charts that deserve further investigation.
Open the Charts
Once you've narrowed the list, open each TradingView chart and review:
- Market structure
- Resistance
- Higher lows
- Volume behaviour
- Overall trend
The scanner helps find opportunities. The chart helps you evaluate them.
Save Your Research
If a stock continues to display strong market structure after your chart review, save it to My Workspace.
Building a watchlist allows you to monitor developing opportunities over time instead of repeatedly searching for the same stocks.
